Style: Casement, Double-Hung, Sliding, Picture, Bay, Bow, Awning
Window Styles to Choose From
Different window styles serve different purposes depending on ventilation needs, room layout, and architectural style. During your consultation, we’ll help you compare styles and determine what works best for your home.
Casement Windows
Casement windows are hinged on the side and open outward using a crank handle. They provide excellent ventilation and a tight seal when closed.
Often chosen for:
- Areas where airflow is a priority
- Kitchens, bathrooms, and hard-to-reach spaces
- Homes seeking strong energy performance
Double-Hung Windows
Double-hung windows feature two operable sashes that move up and down, allowing for flexible ventilation and easy cleaning.
Often chosen for:
- Traditional and historic homes
- Bedrooms and living spaces
- Homeowners who want classic style and functionality
Sliding Windows
Sliding windows open horizontally and are ideal for spaces where vertical opening is limited.
Often chosen for:
- Wide window openings
- Modern or transitional homes
- Rooms where ease of operation matters
Picture Windows
Picture windows are fixed windows designed to maximize natural light and views. Because they do not open, they offer excellent energy efficiency.
Often chosen for:
- Living rooms with scenic views
- Spaces where ventilation is not needed
- Paired with operable windows for balance
Bay Windows
Bay windows extend outward from the home and typically combine multiple window units to create additional interior space and visual interest.
Often chosen for:
- Living rooms and dining areas
- Homes looking to enhance curb appeal
- Creating seating or display space
Bow Windows
Bow windows are similar to bay windows but use four or more windows in a curved configuration, creating a softer exterior appearance.
Often chosen for:
- Homes with curved or softer architectural lines
- Expansive views and added natural light
- Elegant, design-forward spaces
Awning Windows
Awning windows are hinged at the top and open outward from the bottom, allowing ventilation even during light rain.
Often chosen for:
- Bathrooms and basements
- Placed above or below other window styles
- Areas needing privacy and airflow
Materials: Wood & Clad, Fiberglass, Vinyl
Window Material Options
Each window material option offers distinct advantages depending on your home’s style, performance needs, and budget. During your consultation, we’ll walk through these differences and help you select the best solution.
Wood & Clad Windows
Wood and clad windows combine classic interior warmth with durable exterior protection. Interior wood provides rich aesthetics and design flexibility, while exterior cladding helps protect against weather and reduce maintenance.
Benefits
- Timeless appearance, painted or stained
- Excellent insulation and comfort
- Cladding that resists rot, fading, and weather
- Broad design flexibility
Best for
Homeowners prioritizing design, craftsmanship, and long-term curb appeal.
Fiberglass Windows
Fiberglass windows are known for exceptional strength and stability. Because fiberglass expands and contracts at nearly the same rate as glass, seals remain tighter and performance stays consistent through temperature changes.
Benefits
- Extremely strong, stable construction
- Excellent energy and thermal performance
- Low maintenance with long-lasting finishes
- Slim profiles that allow for more glass and light
Best for
Homeowners focused on durability, efficiency, and long-term performance.
Vinyl Windows
Vinyl windows offer a practical, cost-effective solution with reliable insulation and easy upkeep. Modern vinyl windows are engineered for durability and consistent performance across a wide range of home styles.
Benefits
- Affordable replacement option
- Low maintenance with no painting required
- Good insulation and energy efficiency
- Dependable performance for everyday living
Best for
Homeowners seeking value, comfort, and minimal maintenance.
Glass Technology: Insulation, Light Transfer, Gas Fills
Window Glass Technology
Modern window performance depends as much on the glass package as it does on the frame. Today’s windows are rated using standardized performance values.
Low-E (Low-Emissivity) Glass
Low-E glass uses a nearly invisible coating to reflect heat while still allowing natural light to pass through. Most quality replacement windows today include some form of Low-E glass because of its impact on comfort and efficiency.
Values
- Low-E is usually listed as a feature rather than a number value.
- Different Low-E coatings may be used depending on whether the goal is better insulation, reduced solar heat, or a balance of both.
What it means for your home
Low-E glass helps keep heat inside during winter, reflect heat away during summer, and block ultraviolet rays that can fade flooring and furniture.
U-Factor (Insulation Performance)
U-Factor measures how well a window resists heat transfer. Lower numbers indicate better insulation.
Values
- Older or basic windows: around 0.40 to 0.50
- Standard replacement windows: around 0.30 to 0.35
- High-performance windows: 0.20 to 0.29
What it means for your home
Lower U-Factor values help reduce heat loss, drafts, and cold spots, especially during winter. Many homeowners notice more even temperatures near windows with lower U-Factor ratings.
SHGC (Solar Heat Gain Coefficient)
SHGC measures how much heat from sunlight passes through the window glass. It focuses specifically on solar heat, not overall insulation.
Values
- Lower solar gain: 0.20 to 0.30
- Moderate solar gain: 0.30 to 0.40
- Higher solar gain: 0.40 and above
What it means for your home
Lower SHGC values help limit overheating in sunny rooms, while moderate values can allow beneficial warmth during cooler months. The right range depends on window orientation, room usage, and personal comfort preferences.
Argon & Krypton Gas Fills
Many energy-efficient windows use argon or krypton gas fills between panes of glass to improve insulation. Argon is commonly used and provides strong insulation at a reasonable cost. Krypton is denser and typically used in higher-performance or thinner glass units where additional insulation is needed.
Values
Gas fills are usually listed as a feature, such as “argon-filled” or “krypton-filled,” rather than as a numerical rating.
What it means for your home
Gas-filled glass units insulate better than air-filled units and contribute to lower U-Factor values, helping maintain more consistent indoor temperatures and improved comfort.
Visible Light Transmittance (VLT)
In addition to efficiency and insulation, the amount of natural light a window allows into your home plays a major role in comfort and livability. Visible Light Transmittance, or VLT, measures how much daylight passes through the glass.
Values
- Higher light transmission: 0.50 to 0.70
- Moderate light transmission: 0.40 to 0.50
- Lower light transmission: below 0.40
What it means for your home
Higher VLT allows brighter interiors, while lower VLT can help reduce glare in very sunny spaces. A balanced VLT provides comfortable daylight without excessive brightness or heat.

Horsham Windows: What Makes This Market So Special
Horsham started as farmland. When Samuel Carpenter bought the land in the 1680s, Quaker families farmed it, and the township stayed rural well into the 20th century. Then the Navy took over Harold Pitcairn’s airfield in 1942, the Turnpike opened in 1950, this caused Horsham to become built out in about thirty years. The median home here dates to 1975. And nearly half the housing stock went up between 1970 and 1989, with one in four Horsham homes built in the 1980s.
That’s important for windows because a whole township’s worth of builder-grade units is aging out on about the same schedule. If you own a colonial or split-level in Saw Mill Valley or Wynmere, you’re probably looking at original aluminum or first-generation vinyl that’s fogged between the panes, lost its sash balances, or both. Townhome communities make up about a fifth of all units in Horsham, and there the problems repeat for every aging unit.
Jets flew out of NAS Willow Grove for nearly 70 years, and plenty of homes along Easton Road and County Line Road changed hands under that flight path. But the airfield shut down in March 2011 and the 862 acres behind the fence are now headed into redevelopment. Today the airplane sounds homeowners used to ask us about are replaced by noise from Route 611, Welsh Road, and a weekday workforce that outnumbers the people who actually live here. Noise -reducing laminated glass and a properly sealed rough opening are more necessary here than most places.

What Homeowners Say About Our Window Installations
We had a garden window replaced by SpringHouse Ambler. The price was better than the other quotes I received without any long drawn out upsell. The installation was quick and efficient. I absolutely recommend!
We got our new door by Springhouse and I love it. We will save a ton of money on just the heating. In addition it looks awesome. Our house is 100 years old and Zack Keller did a fabulous job doing the project right. Would highly recommend both Springhouse and Zack.
We are quite happy with the quality of our Marvin windows and are particularly pleased with our window installers Gaylon and Brian. From our initial meeting, the men were very friendly and considerate, making sure to wear a mask in our home and thoroughly cleaning up as they completed each segment of the installation project. We have had many contractors help renovate our home but Gaylon and Brian, in addition to their speedy and professional work, were the most pleasant to have around.
I’ve used Spring House Window & Door several times for window replacement at my house. It was helpful for me to be able to go to their showroom and to see and try out the windows they recommended. It’s been about 6 years since the windows were installed and they still look good, open and close smoothly and are easy to clean. I highly recommend Spring House WIndow & Door.
Great job replacing a front door unit assembly that included sidelines and custom transom. Terrific price and very skilled install team. A+++

Common Questions from Horsham Homeowners
Do I need a permit to replace my windows in Horsham Township?
Not for a straight replacement. Horsham Township’s own list of work that doesn’t need a permit includes replacing windows and doors where no changes to the opening are made. If you’re enlarging an opening or adding a new one, that’s structural and may require a building permit. We help with the application and inspection scheduling for you.
My house is on Horsham's historic resource list. Does that change anything?
Possibly. Horsham has no historic district, but individual properties designated Class I or Class II fall under the township’s Historic Resource Overlay, where exterior changes are guided by the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards. We will help confirm what’s required and manage the process for you.
Will old windows fail Horsham's resale inspection?
No. The township’s Residential Property Transfer Certification, in place since 2020, checks the curb and sidewalk, whether your house number is visible from the street, and that smoke detectors work. Windows aren’t on the list. Your buyer’s inspector will check them, though, and fogged glass shows up in every report.
Do all new windows qualify me for a tax credit?
No. The federal Section 25C energy efficiency credit expired on December 31, 2025, so there is no federal credit available for 2026 installations. Any manufacturer or utility incentives are separate and change often. We will tell you what is actually available when you book, rather than building a quote around a credit that no longer exists.
Is painting included?
Products can be ordered factory-finished, and we handle all capping and exterior trim work. We do not paint interior trim. We replace existing trim with primed trim, and the homeowner paints it or hires a painter once installation is complete.
How is disposal handled?
We pack in and pack out each day, leaving your home as clean as we find it. All debris and old materials are hauled away by our crews and disposed of in our own dumpsters at our warehouse.
